Free Radicals

When weak bonds split in such a way that an ion, atom, or molecule is left behind with unpaired number of electrons, free radicals are formed. These free radicals are in search of their missing electron, thus, are highly reactive elements. This highly reactive nature of theirs makes them dangerous, because they can cause potential damage to surrounding molecules, atoms, or ions. Let's find out more about the damage they can cause to our bodies, and even to the surrounding environment.

There is growing evidence that free radicals are the root cause of all degenerative diseases. Excess of these unstable oxygen molecules in the body, encourages aging and tissue damage, along with aiding many complex health worries....

Free radicals are nothing but atoms or molecules in our body with unpaired electrons. These free electrons can prove to be harmful as they would go out of control to get a pair, thereby causing damage to the body. So what causes...

These days in many health articles you must be coming across the words 'free radicals'. Let us look at what free radicals are, where do they come from, their effects on the body, and how to avoid any negative effects by them.
